Actually there's loads of excellent rock records made in the 80's, they're just too easily forgotten under all bonjovis and twistedsisters.

Remember
Bad To The Bone, Maverick from George Thorogood
Dequello and El Loco from ZZ TOP
Georgia Satellites
Jason and The Scorchers
Guitar Town and Copperhead Road from Steve Earle
Back in Black, For Those About To Rock from AC/DC
Seconds of Pleasure from Rockpile
Rain Dogs from Tom Waits
Tuff Enuff and T-Bird Rhythm from Fabulous Thunderbirds
Stevie Ray Vaughan
STRAY CATS!!
Electric from The Cult
Blasters
and
so
on

There is the good stuff, you just have to dig a bit deeper. I think the 90's was worse than the 80's.

Sir Stonesalot >"Secret Separations" by the Fixx?<

I was thinking "One Thing Leads To Another"...or was that The Psychedelic Furs?
March 27th, 2005 05:17 AM
Slavegirl That was a pretty impressive list SirStonesalot. Being a child of the 80's myself I have a fondness for the music...my list would go something like this but in no particular order

1. Master and Servant- Depeche Mode
2. Hand in Glove- The Smiths
3. 1999- Prince
4. Welcome to the Jungle- Guns n' Roses
5. Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)- The Eurythmics
6. Let's Dance- David Bowie
7. Cities in Dust- Souixie and the Banshees
8. New Year's Day- U2
9. Rock the Casbah- The Clash
10. Blue Monday- New Order

Not alot of deep thought going on in the 80's but alot of good danceable music! At least in my humble opinion.
